Description

When you shoot out the driver of any vehicle the vehicle almost always blows up and it only happens with the driver, shooting out a passenger doesnt do anything.

Hello,
this is most likely caused by community mods. Does it also happen to you with no mods enabled?

It has been happening alot in breaking point since Arma patch 1.36, however, i have never actually seen it happen in 'vanilla' Arma..
Would i be able to test it on king of the hill or wasteland?

These missions are still heavily scripted, the best for you would be to try it in a simple editor-made mission.

Tried all vehicles with ai's inside them, nothing happened very anticlimatic lol. Do you have any idea what could be causing it? because when it happens in breaking point the player stands up inside the vehicle glitching through the textures and then it usually blows up right after that.

It probably is a script used in a mission. The glitching might be caused by the delay after the script is executed. I am resolving this issue as "No Bug" as it does not happen in official content.
